Chapter 200

Chapter 0200 “Just getting there.” Alec said. “You keep working and I’ll let you know if I find anything.”

“Okay.” Grabbing another picture, I started cutting it but much slower. The printer finally stopped printing and I was so thankful.

Emmy was moving rather quickly after she had the gatorade and lunchables. I had a feeling she probably shouldn’t have had the lunchables but her color was already looking better.

Picking up another photo, I started trimming it so it matched the location and there wasn’t any overlap. Right as I was about to cut, I noticed a head looking out from behind a tree. This face looked like someone I knew.

“Jasper...” I asked in a worried tone.

“What?” Jasper moved over to me.

“Look.” I handed him the partially cut photo.

“That is a head.” Jasper said. The picture was of me going for a run. Alec was with me and we didn’t even notice a person behind a tree?

“Doesn’t it look like someone?” I pushed.

“I’m not sure...

“Emmy, doesn’t that look like someone?” I took it from his hands and gave it to Emmy.

She squinted at it before her eyes widened. “Penny?”

“It’s the same nose!” I said.

“Same face shape and that little half smile she has.” Emmy agreed.

“There isn’t a way to prove this but it is enough to give us pause.” I said as I looked at the face.

“Where is that at?” Jasper asked. “A stranger... literally twenty feet from you and Alec. How did he get there?” “This is like on the other side of the pack. This is by the pond.” I said. “Almost where we came across the rogues.” “Are you telling Alec?” I asked.

“Yes.” Jasper said after a moment. “Did they find the one location?” Emmy asked. “They did.” He didn’t elaborate.

“Alec?” I asked in the mind-link.

“Everything okay?” He answered. Alec sounded out of breath.

“Did you find something?”

“A tunnel. I have some men seeing where it ends. I am going to the other location that you found.”

“I only have a tree. It could be anywhere.”

“I know but it’s worth looking into. Dad called in some people to come do a full ground search with sonar.

It will look for voids to find any tunnels.”

“This is bad.” I said.

“Have to finished all the other pictures?” Alec asked.

“Just about, a few more to do.”

“Good. Let me know if you find anything else. If not, you can move on to another part of the phone.”

“How much longer are you going to be?” I hated sounded needy.

“It’s going to be a little. I have Cash working on a few things and Colt is coming through on his end.”

“This is turning into a cluster f uck. We might need to consider moving completely out of this pack. Thir. about it. I or anyone could have been hurt or kidnapped at anytime. Is it really safe here?” Emmy was finishing the last of the pictures and Jasper had taken the photo back and was studying it.

“I was thinking the same thing. I was actually thinking if we moved all women and children and left the warriors, we could be ready when they attack. After tonight, they could be attacking as early as tomorrow.” Alec sounded like he was running.

“Move them all to Colt’s pack as the attack is going on. That way they are occupied.” I suggested.

“I wish I could be with you but take Jasper and go to dad’s office and catch him up.” Alec seemed almost distracted at this point.

“Okay.” I didn’t cut the mind-link but I pushed it back. If I wanted to, I could hear what Alec was saying but I tuned him out. “Jasper?”

“Yeah?”

“I need to speak with Alpha Marc, can you take me?” I asked standing up. He really didn’t have an cntion “Of course Emmy? Will you be okay?” Jasper asked her
